Default walbro blows!

Has anyone ever had there walbro fuel just quit on them? I did the other weekend out at LACR, just finished a run and my car shut right off, fuel pump bad. Glad they have a warranty, It's only been installed maybe 3 weeks.

do you regularly run the car VERY low on gas? If you do that can cause a failure.

Actually I was really low the night it quit, but ever since I had my jrsc installed I was throwing a check engine light at least every gas tank, I would reset it and then it would come back. Checked the code on it and it was something to do with the fuel evaporative system and pressure stuff.

Are you using an FMU or FPR?

Ok, well you realize you will go through intank pumps --any except for the Endyn Bosch intank-- if you dont run an inline with an FMU setup.
